Entourage onMac - identity crisis
Microsoft Entourage had built up a 16 Gb Identities folder in Entourage office 2004. I upgraded to MSO 2008 and it transferred the identity to the new version. None of the mail wants to open. It reccomends a rebuild of the database when i try to re-import this file, but the identity or database will not list as a database in the MSO import dialogue box. The installer of MSO 2008 deleted the older version od MSO - however I always have a backup. To me the identity file of 16 Gb is far too big. When i try to copy the database it reports a corrupt file. and stops copying. How do I get my mail back. This is the only mac I have used entourage on.

According to Mail Help, When you attach images to a message, Mail displays the total size of the message and all attached images at the bottom of the message window. If your message exceeds the maximum size allowed by your email provider, the message size appears in red, along with the allowed limit (when Mail is able to get that information from the email provider).

Re: Midi interfaces. Was: Question about USB ports?
Pre Sonus make a good firewire interface for midi. Firewire 400 and SPDIF plus live instrument inputs - mixer - with 48v mic input booster. I use it on CME keyboard - works on G4 MDD and Tiger - also runs on G5 quad.

I was just going to ask a question. I'm an Ableton Live user. My studio setup is XP PC based because it was available, and I needed something that would take the 5V PCI interface card for an M-Audio Delta 1010 audio/midi interface. This all works fine and because I ONLY use XP with the one program, it doesn't get in the way. The midi timing is always perfect. But I need an additinal mobile setup. I had hoped to use my trusty 12 G4 867MHz Aluminum PowerBook, at least for just driving my midi sound modules (I'm old-school), which shouldn't take much CPU power. I bought a Turtle beach USB midi interface (One in, one out) which works but the timing goes off sporadically. I was wondering if this is because it's only a usb 1.1 interface on the PowerBook or if it was a CPU power issue, or just a bad interface. The interface just uses the built-in Apple drivers (Tiger). The shame is that the PB has a FW400 interface which would be MUCH faster so if it's just the usb speed then a FireWire midi interface would be great. But I can't find one that isn't an Audio/midi interface which is more than I need. Is anybody else doing this sort of thing? Anybody got any recommendations for a FireWire Audio/midi interface (but mainly for the midi)? I'd love to press the old PB G4 but into regular use.

Re: Powermac MDD crashing
Are u sure the disk is bootable... did u rec. a disk image? Also how does the mac get 1.38gb ram -? I am beginning to think you might start by backing up and looking toward a new system. Heres what I would recommend. Boot with Tiger os disc and see if there are not any unrepairable errors. If so install a new system and archive the older one. When you repair permissions or the drive - the disk utility sometimes crashes or redlines the fact it is unrepairable. Also check the other drives while you are at it. What Does About this Mac report on the usb ports anything odd? seriously though... start thinking of a new os.
